Pripyat

Pripyat or Pripiat is a city located almost three kilometres away from nuclear reactor of Soviet Union. It was developed in 1970 and officially named as a city in 1979. The population of the city at that time is almost 50,000. The city was evacuated after Chernobyl incident in 1986. The incident made everything useless and all the 50,000 inhabitants were departed suddenly. Although some signs of nature (plants, trees and grass) started to show again in the city but it will remain unfit for the human beings to live for plenty of years to come.
